  1. How Root Canal Treatment Saves Your Tooth Dr. Joe Stucky, DDS “Soft Touch Dental”

  2. Modern dentistry has come a long way and your dentist always strives to save your natural teeth rather than extract them. Using the most effective an aesthetics and precision endodontic instruments, your dentist will do everything possible to preserve your natural tooth with root canal treatment.

  3. Why Root Canal Treatment is Needed? In the center of the tooth lie the pulp tissues which make up the “living portion of the tooth”. When decay extends all the way to the pulp chamber, these living tissues are exposed to bacteria and food particles

  4. These leads to infection deep inside the tooth. The infection can result in severe pain and abscess in the gums and even widespread bodily infection if not treated.

  5. To alleviate the pain and infection, your dentist will thoroughly numb the area around the tooth with a local anesthetic and remove the infected tissues in the pulp chamber. Your teeth can still function optimally once the infected pulp is removed.

  6. If you are experiencing severe tooth pain, visit your dentist as soon as possible so that they can perform a tooth-saving root canal treatment. Endodontic treatment helps you maintain your natural smile, continue eating the foods you love and limits the need for ongoing dental work. With proper care, most teeth that have had root canal treatment can last a lifetime.
